The club has a regular programme of events for Dinghies over the summer and autumn months, with dinghy racing on most Sunday afternoons and Wednesday evenings.
We encourage all members to make use of the clubs extensive race of well-maintained dinghies to participate in our Club racing programme.
Wednesday evening racing runs during summer evenings from May until the end of August. Racing starts at 1915, allowing plenty of time to get down after work, and there’s normally a social crowd in the bar afterwards.
The club isn’t just about dinghy racing. From May to September we organise fun regattas, where our younger members can develop their skills with fun races and exercises.
DBSC is a RYA recognised teaching centre (RTC), allowing us to run RYA courses and issue certificates.
The club can offer a wide range of courses from dinghy sailing (all levels), and the equivalent Junior stages, to powerboat Levels 1 and 2 plus Safety Boat.
Training is offered in various ways and is an opportunity for both adults and children to build up skill and try different boats. The club has a fleet of dinghies to support training activities.
We also offer powerboat courses over weekends. These are scheduled throughout the season.
Training sessions are held on Tuesday nights for children and adults and are run by RYA qualified instructors and assistants. Places are limited so participants are required to register in advance.
The racer group in particular will be encouraged to take part in Wednesday night & weekend racing. Where possible there will be instructors on hand, and extra rescue cover if needed, to make it easier for novices to participate in the club’s racing programme.
For Tuesday Training, participants need to be at the club by about 1800. We aim to be rigged up, changed and afloat by 1900 latest. We are usually ashore by 2030.
Planned dates for training are shown in the Calendar.
